(Clearwisdom.net) Since Master told practitioners to send forth righteous thoughts, I have formed a habit of sending forth righteous thoughts and reciting the Fa-rectification verses every time I go out. As long as my mind is not working on something, I send forth righteous thoughts. Wherever I go, I send forth righteous thoughts. It has become a habit of mine.
Two months ago I went shopping near my home one day. I saw a scarlet communist flag stuck to each of the windows downstairs and upstairs of a newly renovated building. I thought to myself that it would harm people to have these things displayed on the window. From the bottom of my heart I did not want to see this image. While I walked slowly passed the window, I said to one of the officials in the management department in my heart: "Please tear them down. They are not good for people and they harm people. If you want this shopping center to be safe and prosperous, please tear them down immediately." Then I recited the Fa-rectification verses in my heart. On my way back, as I passed the window, I sent forth righteous thoughts all the same. Every time I went shopping, I did the same thing.
About two or three weeks later, I saw that one corner of the bloody flag upstairs was gone. I kept doing as above for another two times. One day I went shopping and saw the bloody flag downstairs had disappeared. I went upstairs to find the flag there had disappeared from the display window as well. Obviously the officer from the management department had taken it down.
Around the Chinese Communist Party National Day in past years the roads, streets and residential areas near my home were full of bloody flags, big and small. I felt uncomfortable as soon as I saw them and didn't want them to appear before my eyes. I would say in my heart: "Don't hang those poisonous things as it is not good for any of you; don't hang them anymore. Sometimes I saw some individuals hang bloody flags outside their windows, and I said to them in my heart: "Please don't hang them, it is not good for your family, and it is harming you."
For the past two years these bloody flags didn't appear on the Chinese Communist Party National Day. Those families who hung the bloody flags didn't do so anymore. The righteous thoughts of our Dafa practitioners have had an effect. Many young practitioners in China send forth righteous thoughts when their schools raise bloody flags and cause the flags to drop or be unable to rise.
Here I would like to suggest that if there are bloody flags or pictures of the head demon near where practitioners live or where they often go, please send forth righteous thoughts when you pass them so as to let the black poison disappear and let the whole country or the whole world form a big field of righteous thoughts. The result will be (1) People will be no longer poisoned by the black poison emitted from the black substances. (2) In the past soldiers dashed forward with flags leading the way. Once the flags fell, soldiers' morale would be affected. Maybe this example is not exact, but by the time many people know that "Heaven eliminates the Chinese Communist Party" and the bloody flags fall and disappear one after another, how will people think if they still see them?
Master said,
"Shan is really powerful." ("Teaching the Fa at the Conference in Singapore")
"...people all have a side that's aware. "("Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference")
So when we send forth righteous thoughts, we shouldn't have hatred, but should be kind to their human sides instead. As one practitioner commented, the purpose of sending forth righteous thoughts is to dissolve the evil, save sentient beings and clear out any interference by the old forces. We don't fight with anybody and we don't have any bad intentions. We walk our paths correctly and from the perspective of the Fa and do what we should do. If there is interference, we send forth righteous thoughts to clear it out with a kind heart. If we have the heart of competitiveness, then the old forces will come up with interference according to the old cosmos' principle of "mutual generation and mutual inhibition."
Shed the mindset that those bloody flags have created and no longer passively allow them to poison people. We must have a very determined thought: "That which harms people must be cleared away and I don't acknowledge it." Master said,
"As I've said, everything that happens today in the ordinary society is the result of Dafa disciples' thoughts." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Philadelphia, U.S.A.")
If we all refuse to acknowledge them and want them gone, can they exist?
